No, FULLY. It's time for you to admit defeat and move on, ****wit.
You lost. You never had a hope of prevailing.

NO zygotes - you do not know what that is - benefit from coming into
existence, ****wit. None. Life per se - initial existence - is not a
benefit: it does not improve the welfare of an entity. Benefit MEANS
to make an entity better off than it was before, i.e. improve its
welfare, and there WAS no welfare to improve prior to the entity's
existence.
An entity's coming into existence is not a benefit to that entity.
This is established. You've lost - it's time to admit defeat and move
on.
